Chapter Seventy-Three: Dead Wood Meets Spring

Put down your phone, tidy up your hairstyle, and say goodbye to the past.

Zhou Yin got the schedule for the third round.

Since the start of the game, there are only six people left, and six into three in the third round.

Among these six people, except for Zhou Yin, the players are all temporary workers found by the rest of the pet stores.

According to past practice, the temporary workers hired by pet shops were generally limited to the level of fourth-order battle pet masters.

This will not only ensure the excitement of the exhibition match, but also not cause a meaningless huge waste!

But in this year's exhibition competition, there was a man named Ma Yuanbo who broke the rules.

Fifth-Order Battle Pet Master, Fang Liang!

The third round is six into three.

The first to appear was Fang Liang, the vice captain of the Dragon Reclamation Team!

And the veteran fourth-order battle pet master who unfortunately became his opponent, although he knew that he could not win, he still tried his best to fight and won the applause of the house!

Then there was a duel between two fourth-order battle pet masters at the same level.

These two fourth-order war pet masters are also veteran war pet masters who have experienced a hundred battles, and although the war pets used by the two are civilian war pets sold in both pet stores, they have been specially improved after careful cultivation.

Whether it is a war pet or a war pet master, both are of the same level and evenly matched!

The battle against the first pet alone lasted a full thirty minutes!

From the fierce collision at the beginning to the fierce battle at the end, the two war pet masters did not retreat and showed their style.

But it also consumes a lot of energy and energy because of this.

Especially in the battle of the second war pet, both war pets fought to exhaustion, and finally had no choice but to draw, and both gave up the final.

Such a result was unexpected by the organizers.

After calculation, there were only three players left in the entire exhibition match!

Fang Liang, a fifth-order battle pet master who has already advanced to the finals.

and Zhou Yin, who has not yet started the battle, and another war pet master.

The third battle of the third round.

It will be up to Zhou Yin to fight against the other pet master, and the final finalist will be determined from it, and Fang Liang will meet in the grand finals at eight o'clock in the evening!

When Zhou Yin received this notice, he was about to enter the arena.

"So, this round is equivalent to a direct semi-final?"

......

In the commentary seat, the ZC group is announcing the new competition system, and the audience is also talking about it.

Zhou Yin walked into the arena and looked at his opponent.

A young man with a thin face and slender limbs like a monkey, about thirty years old.

Those who can become a fourth-order battle pet master before the age of thirty are generally academic schools who graduated from prestigious schools.

But the temperament of the player in front of him is more like a practical person from society!

The commentary bench has not yet begun to routinely introduce the players on both sides, and Zhou Yin only knows the names of the opposite side.

Green shade pet shop, fourth-order battle pet master, Hou Shu!

"Hello, I'm Hou Shu. ”

"Zhou Yin. ”

The two walked to the middle of the arena and shook hands.

Hou Shu looks very shrewd, but there is an unconcealable gangsterism in his eyes, which is reminiscent of the "old boy" in the old movie.

"How about we make a bet?"

Zhou Yin originally wanted to return to the player position after shaking hands, but this Hou Shu suddenly proposed.

"Bet?"

Zhou Yin actually doesn't like to bet, and entrusting the victory or defeat to illusory luck is not something worth affirming.

But life itself is a gamble, and from birth to death, a person will inevitably go through countless fate-determining gambles, which cannot be escaped.

Now that the other party took the initiative to mention it, he didn't mind asking: "How to bet?"

Hou Shu's eyes naturally widened, and his expression was radiant: "Add an extra bet to this battle!"

"Oh?"

Thinking of the other party's origin, Zhou Yin roughly understood: "What do you want?"

Hou Shu is also unabashed: "The reproduction secret of the carp king!"

Zhou Yin changed his tone and teased: "Then do you know how much the reproduction secret of the carp king is worth?

Hou Shu smiled unhesitantly: "I can't take out the equivalent thing." But I have a piece of information about the Longmen Caves that you definitely want to know. The value of an item is not in itself, but in the degree to which the other person needs it, isn't it?"

After Zhou Yin heard this, his expression changed slightly: "Longmen Cave?"

Hou Shu said: "Of course, I am just the one who spreads the word. Not long after the news came, even if you lose, Boss Lu will share the information with you, so whether this bet will be accepted or not depends on the situation, not the benefit. ”

Zhou Yin thought for a moment and nodded.

"Both players are in their positions!"

The referee blows the whistle.

The two commentators began to introduce the information of the contestants.

Zhou Yin retreated to his seat and heard the message that the chariot teacher was like a few treasured science Hou trees.

Hou Shu was in his twenties, orphaned, and later adopted by Lu Weiwei, the owner of Luyin Pet Shop.

Hou Shu studied in middle school and was admitted to the Higher War Pet Academy, but he did not enroll!

At the age of eighteen, Hou Shu took a third-order war pet and became a low-level pioneer and went deep into the wilderness to adventure, until he returned three months later with a second war pet by his side.

Later, under the introduction of Lu Weiwei, Hou Shu joined a C-level wasteland team, risked five years, became a fourth-order war pet master in the fifth year, and quit the wasteland team.

After that, Hou Shu was admitted to the professional war pet master and became an officially recognized fourth-order professional war pet master!

Today, he works for a private investigation firm, assisting the municipal government in handling mysterious cases.

And his main battle pet is a rare old locust tree man!

The green shade pet store specializes in grass and ground war pets, among which the locust tree man is a war pet belonging to the "tree man" series, and the cultivation of this kind of war pet is very troublesome, especially in the "time cost"!

The "tree people" sold in pet stores are generally ten-year-old tree people, with a level between the first and second orders.

But this locust tree man of Hou Shu is a hundred-year-old tree man!

Ten years of trees, 100 years of people!

Once the Treant pets reach the age of 100 years, they will undergo an important metamorphosis - their IQ will be greatly improved!

......

Since the other party is a grass specialist...... It's up to you, Needlebee!"

Zhou Yin didn't hesitate too much, and directly summoned the big needle bee!

There aren't that many rules for exhibition matches.

In the official competition, the war pet master needs to decide on the choice of "venue" and "start" before the game.

"First strike" is a disadvantage, and the opponent can choose a restrained pet according to your pet category.

But Hou Shu didn't do that.

He still chose the grass war pet, and he is not his main force "Locust Tree Man"!

"Please, Blighter!"

A human-sized blighted monster came into view.

......

"It's a blighter!"

Zhou Yin's eyes shrank, this withered monster is not a war pet that can be bought normally, but since Hou Shu can take it out at this time, it means that the Green Shade Pet Store can even buy this rare war pet!

The whole of the blighted monster resembles a human form formed by the entanglement of countless withered branches and vines.

Sudden encounters in the dark will even mistake them for mummies!

But in terms of the nature of life, the blighted monster and the ghost-type war pet mummy do have a similar side.

They are all new beings born from the corpse of a creature after death!

Blighters are monsters born after a large number of plants have withered and withered!

Every blight monster is greedily thirsty for water, and the magic nature of the water system skill is almost ineffective against it, and sometimes it can even absorb water in turn to heal itself!

It can be said that it is the nemesis of the little princess of the carp king!

Fortunately, Zhou Yin's first starter is a big needle bee!

The large needle bee flapped its wings and flew into the air, its red eyes carefully observing the blighted monster.

It was the first time it had seen such a magical creature, and it couldn't help but be a little curious.

There was a disgusting smell of decay from the blighted monster's body, and it didn't have the natural fragrance it liked, like a plant corpse that had been exposed to the sun after withering, showing gray skin that was chapped inch by inch!

"Beep-"

The referee blows the whistle.

The battle begins!

Almost in an instant, the big needle bee that was still looking leisurely just now let out a worm cry at dusk!

"Hiss!"

With the sound of insects, a full twelve [Missile Needles] appeared in front of it, lined up in an array!

"Woohoo!"

Three-Star Skill Missile Needle!

The twelve missile needles turned into afterimages, and they shot at the blighted monster without the slightest slowness!

"Wow!"

The blighted monster let out a cry like a baby's cry, and from beneath its feet a rotten vine flew upward, intersecting into a dense web of vines in an instant!

The entire twelve missile needles were all shot on the rattan net, but they failed to penetrate it, but it was closed by the net, and the whole thing was trapped!

In the momentary surprise of the Great Needle Bee, the Blighted Monster grabbed the rattan net, threw it back, and burst out with great force, throwing all the missile needles in the net back!

These twelve missile needles actually shot at the big needle bee instead!

"Buzz!"

The needle bee flapped its wings rapidly, leaping up a section like lightning, narrowly avoiding the missile needle.

"Wow!"

The Blighted Monster roared into the sky, giving out a menace.

In the first second of the battle, the two battle pets will be full of firepower!

......

After a short standoff.

The needle bee jerked up its right arm with a needle, and one after another flying needles appeared on top of it.

Among them, with a little yellowish is the missile needle of insect energy condensation.

The pitch black is the condensed poison needle of poisonous energy!

The big needle bee concentrated, and countless flying needles condensed.

Then the first, the second, the third......

It's like a missile launch, bursting out one after another!

The corners of the blighted monster's mouth were drawn to an extremely long angle, revealing a sarcastic smile.

It also raised its right arm, and as soon as its right arm, which was entwined with countless dead vines and dead branches, only retracted, a large number of dead vines spun and unfolded, and they also flew out, trying to intercept the flying needles!

Flying needles shoot fast, and rattan nets are collected.

Countless powders explode on contact!

It's like a fierce battle on the battlefield, machine gun fire, steel shield body.

Zhou Yin didn't say anything to command, but just maintained the [Bond] connection, feeling the excitement of the big needle bee at the moment.

The unicorn insect that originally fled when it met the enemy, after a long period of cultivation, finally evolved into a large needle bee with high fighting intent!

Since its evolution, the blight monster in front of it can be said to be the first fourth-order war pet it has encountered!

And the Hou tree on the other side also uses the [Chain of Psionic Energy] to maintain a spiritual connection with the blighted monster.

Outsiders only know that his main battle pet is the hundred-year-old locust tree man.

But in fact, this blighted monster is the first war pet that has grown up with it since childhood!

From the time the blight monster was the size of a palm, he kept it in a small pot, and even went to sleep at night.

When he was a child, he always leaned on the bed and read fairy tales to him.

And when he can't help but be sleepy, and accidentally falls asleep, the blighter will stretch out the dead branch and close the quilt.

Despite the decaying body of the Blighter, its mind, like that of most living beings, is clear and warm.

Memories of the past flashed through my mind.

The corners of Hou Shu's mouth hooked slightly, and he was about to give an order, when he suddenly saw the body of the blighted monster and leaned back.

His face changed suddenly!

A black poisonous needle actually passed through the withered vine's defense network and shot at the blighted monster's body!

......

in the venue.

When using the [Poison Needle] and [Missile Needle] to strafe, the Needle Bee uses "Precision Fire" on one of the [Poison Needle].

The special poisonous needle infused with spiritual power found the only gap in the countless dead vines, and finally completed the task.

This scene was projected on the big screen, and the people watching the battle didn't even think about it.

Even the two commentators were stunned, and it took a long time before they murmured: "I actually hit!"

Is it a coincidence, or is it strength?

Apparently the latter!

The big needle bee didn't stop its attack at all because of the single shot that hit the soul, it knew very well that one poisonous needle was not enough, so in the blink of an eye, it shot out all the flying needles floating in the air!

The suddenly poisoned blighted monster showed its flaws, and it could not defend itself well against this wave of attacks, and a large number of flying needles passed through the barrier of the dead vine and nailed to its dry body!

Seeing it standing there, its body densely covered with flying needles, there were exclamations inside and outside the field!

"Blighter!"

Hou Shu's cry was heart-wrenching.

But in a blink of an eye.

He suddenly smiled playfully: "Lie to you~"

......

The director gave him a close-up.

The disgusting and spit-like smile of the spreads all over the screen.

Zhou Yin looked at Hou Shu's expression from a distance, and he was really disgusted.

I saw that the withered monster with several flying needles in its body suddenly regained its footing, and then some small and broken sounds like insect and ant bites came from its body.

Patches of dry skin suddenly fell off.

The flying needles nailed to the skin, the black toxins soaked in, were separated from the body of the blighted monster as the patches of skin faded.

From under the dry and peeled skin, a new layer of fresh green skin was revealed!

The big needle bee stopped high in the air, a little confused.

Zhou Yin was also confused, he found that he had encountered a blind spot in knowledge.

As the layer of dry skin outside faded clean, a green blighted monster that had nothing to do with "withering" appeared in everyone's sight!

The two commentators on the commentary table were also shocked!

Zhang Can: "Chariot teacher, it's time for you to play!"

The charioteer teacher said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the hidden talent of the blighted monster - Deadwood Spring!"

Zhang Can: "Hidden talent?"

Chariot Teacher: "Yes. As we all know, every war pet has special talent characteristics, some of which are ordinary, most of the same kind of war pets have talents, we call them general talents or explicit talents, and among them, the extremely rare, tens of millions of similar war pets only have unique talents, is a hidden talent. I don't know much about the Blight, but the normal Blighter is supposed to be the Rotten talent, and as the decay deepens, the Rotten Talent Blighter will breed a violent toxin in the bark of the tree, which can release poisonous gases. And this blighted monster ......"

One in a million, hidden talent!

Although this is an exaggeration, it is enough to see the rarity of hidden talents.

The blighted monster in the spring of the dead wood suddenly opened its arms, and delicate green shoots sprouted on the bright green vines.

The full spring mood spreads, and there is no trace of the decay when it first appeared.

Hou Shu's voice became high: "Green trees!"

The blighted monster stopped moving, and its feet reached for the bottom, and the green vines pierced into the ground, and it was obvious that something had poured into the vines and poured into the earth, and as the vines became thicker and thicker, like the roots of old trees, the ground rose rapidly.

"Puff puff!"

A large amount of grass-based energy suddenly erupted from beneath the ground.

Shoots emerge from the uplift, grow rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they turn from saplings to towering trees, turning half of the field into a green forest!

"Field Skill: Shade of the Trees!"

Commentator Zhang Can's exclamation resounded throughout the audience.

Any skill that can change the environment of a venue is extremely valuable and useful.

The reason why the green shade pet store has been able to stand for so many years is because of this "green tree" skill cheats!

Hou Shu, as the adopted son of the owner of Luyin Pet Shop, naturally can't be this "green tree".

It's just that Zhou Yin has always thought that the one who masters the "green trees" should be his main battle pet hundred-year-old locust tree people!

And this blighted monster, theoretically, it is simply impossible to master the "green tree"!

But I never thought that it would have an extremely rare hidden talent "Dead Wood Spring"!

With the large amount of grass-based energy generated when "Dead Wood Spring" is activated, the Blighted Monster also omits the "Gathering Energy" step that must be required before performing the field skill, allowing it to quickly perform this field skill!

Thick grass-based energy fills the woods, and every grass-based skill can be greatly bonus!

At this moment, the blighted monster has undoubtedly reached its peak state!

On the contrary, the big needle bee, under the backdrop of the towering tree, is completely a small insect, and the position and momentum of the two have been reversed after the "green tree" came out.

Moreover, the forest field is not only extremely beneficial to the grass war pets, but the thick trees also have the effect of blocking the view of the war pet masters, making it impossible for the war pet masters who are not used to this kind of battle to command the war pets in time.

This kind of jamming tactic against the War Pet Master is not uncommon in War Pet combat.

In fact, Blue Cloud Fox's "Fairy Mist" also has a similar effect.

......

"Blight, the next battle is up to you!"

Hou Shu showed great trust and let the blighted monster give it a go!
